Discovery of a strongly-interrelated gene network in corals under constant darkness by correlation analysis after wavelet transform on complex network model.

ABSTRACT: Coral reefs occupy a relatively small portion of sea area, yet serve as a crucial source of biodiversity by establishing harmonious ecosystems with marine plants and animals. Previous researches mainly focused on screening several key genes induced by stress. Here we proposed a novel method--correlation analysis after wavelet transform of complex network model, to explore the effect of light on gene expression in the coral Acropora millepora based on microarray data. In this method, wavelet transform and the conception of complex network were adopted, and 50 key genes with large differences were finally captured, including both annotated genes and novel genes without accurate annotation. These results shed light on our understanding of coral's response toward light changes and the genome-wide interaction among genes under the control of biorhythm, and hence help us to better protect the coral reef ecosystems. Further studies are needed to explore how functional connections are related to structural connections, and how connectivity arises from the interactions within and between different systems. The method introduced in this study for analyzing microarray data will allow researchers to explore genome-wide interaction network with their own dataset and understand the relevant biological processes.

Project description:Futures market is an important part of the financial market, with a high degree of liquidity and leverage effect. However, the futures market is also faced with various risk factors, such as price fluctuations, market shocks, supply and demand changes. In order to better determine the risk correlation between specific futures markets, this paper uses the wavelet transform-quantile Granger causality test method to identify the risk correlation of four major futures markets in the US futures market from the end of January 2009 to the end of March 2023, such as gold, crude oil, soybeans and natural gas. It provides a new perspective and method for the risk correlation identification of the futures market. The results show that futures contracts with different maturities and price fluctuations under different quantiles have a significant impact on risk correlation. Specifically, in 1-month and 6-month futures contracts, the strongest bidirectional risk correlation exists between gold and natural gas (T-statistics -15.94 and 10.92, respectively); In the 1-month futures contract, there is also a strong bidirectional risk association between crude oil and soybeans and natural gas (T-statistics are 6.87, 17.42, -2.05, 7.35, respectively), while in the 6-month futures contract, there is a bidirectional risk association between crude oil and soybeans (T-statistics are -2.49 and 18.374, respectively). However, natural gas has unidirectional risk association with crude oil and soybean (t statistics are 2.7 and -3.35, respectively); There is a bidirectional risk correlation between gold and soybean, that is, the risk correlation between gold and soybean increases with the increase of the degree of price fluctuation; There is a one-way risk association between gold and crude oil, soybean and gold, and crude oil and natural gas (the T-statistic is greater than the critical value of 1.96). In addition, there is a strong bidirectional or unidirectional risk association between all varieties at the 0.95 quantile. The research results of this paper have certain reference value for the supervision, investment and risk management of the futures market. This paper uses the wavelet transform and quantile Granger causality test method to identify the risk correlation of the futures market, providing a new perspective and method for the risk correlation identification of the futures market, and uses relatively new data to ensure the effectiveness of the empirical analysis. However, there are some limitations in this paper, such as the applicability of wavelet transform-quantile Granger causality test method. Future studies can further expand the sample range, compare the effects of different methods, and explore the risk transmission mechanism between different varieties.

Project description:Concrete is the main material in building. Since its poor structural integrity may cause accidents, it is significant to detect defects in concrete. However, it is a challenging topic as the unevenness of concrete would lead to the complex dynamics with uncertainties in the ultrasonic diagnosis of defects. Note that the detection results mainly depend on the direct parameters, e.g., the time of travel through the concrete. The current diagnosis accuracy and intelligence level are difficult to meet the design requirement for automatic and increasingly high-performance demands. To solve the mentioned problems, our contribution of this paper can be summarized as establishing a diagnosis model based on the GA-BPNN method and ultrasonic information extracted that helps engineers identify concrete defects. Potentially, the application of this model helps to improve the working efficiency, diagnostic accuracy and automation level of ultrasonic testing instruments. In particular, we propose a simple and effective signal recognition method for small-size concrete hole defects. This method can be divided into two parts: (1) signal effective information extraction based on wavelet packet transform (WPT), where mean value, standard deviation, kurtosis coefficient, skewness coefficient and energy ratio are utilized as features to characterize the detection signals based on the analysis of the main frequency node of the signals, and (2) defect signal recognition based on GA optimized back propagation neural network (GA-BPNN), where the cross-validation method has been used for the stochastic division of the signal dataset and it leads to the BPNN recognition model with small bias. Finally, we implement this method on 150 detection signal data which are obtained by the ultrasonic testing system with 50 kHz working frequency. The experimental test block is a C30 class concrete block with 5, 7, and 9 mm penetrating holes. The information of the experimental environment, algorithmic parameters setting and signal processing procedure are described in detail. The average recognition accuracy is 91.33% for the identification of small size concrete defects according to experimental results, which verifies the feasibility and efficiency.
